But Gazza was naturally brilliant. Pickford is a clown.

True. I meant with the stupid antics
Wtf I literally called him this earlier today! Is Big Nev reading this forum?
I agree, he can still improve, and young players have bad spells. If they come through them it makes them stronger and better players.
our money will be better spent elsewhere this summer, unless he loses all confidence.

If you take aim at the media then you have to expect them to return fire. All he had to say was it was a mistake that I shouldn't have made and I'll be working hard on the training ground to make sure it doesn't happen again and the questions while still there wouldn't be half as bad.

I'm glad to be honest. He needs to improve his performances, hes generally been a bit of a liability for the last 12 months. Calling him out will at least put some pressure back onto him, I think he has been complacent of late. Little competition for the Everton shirt and he could have got away with that last year for England but no chance now with Pope and Henderson putting in solid performances. Hopefully he raises his game as hes a quality goalie on his day.

If we hadn't of jumped the gun giving him a contract extension as soon as the World cup was over he'd of prob been on his way this summer or the next at latest. Think we'll prob be stuck with him for another two seasons at least now.
3rd most expensive goalie in history when we signed him Lol.

Yes, Pickford's comments gave those two and countless other rent a gob pundits an open goal there.
We'll he's made his bed now so he's got to lie in it.

He's a shot stopper who, on his day, also plays with a lot of confidence that gives the impression of a commanding performance. His distribution also used to be very good.

Not sure it's about ego - comes across as hyper-defensive to me. Which suggests he's low on confidence about something. Or he just doesnt know how to take criticism constructively. He'd better learn quickly though as he's doing himself and his team no favours there.
Still young. Hope he pushes on, matures a bit and fulfils his potential.

I hope he proves all you guys and the critics right. 75% of you on here would rather see him fail and buy someone else rather than him improve and became a quality keeper for us. He has a big personality and most people don't like that, kinda same reason why people don't like grealish.
As for the Barkley comparisons shouldn't the coaches take abit of stuck seeing as they ain't the getting the best out of there players?

Super bloos out in force telling us not to criticise Pickford. Probably used to give Howard pelters, who was twice the keeper.

Exactly, there's a reason why clever footballers give dull standard answers to questions, it's because it's nigh on impossible to generate a story from them. Jordan made himself a bigger target and helped to fuel much of the reaction. On the Football Weekly podcast they compared his comments to Phil Neville's 'everyone wants me to fail' when he took on the England Women's manager role.
